Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

I am trying to install Blueprism 6.6 trial edition in my local PC. Getting object reference not set to an instance of an object error when creating local DB.
Below are the error details
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at BluePrism.AutomateAppCore.LocalDatabaseInstaller.get_a()
at BluePrism.AutomateAppCore.LocalDatabaseInstaller.get_DatabaseExists()
at AutomateUI.WelcomeWizard.h(Object iir, DoWorkEventArgs iis)

Please suggest how to solve this.

Please share screenshots of the configuration.

Did you install a SQL Server on local PC?
Did you put all configurations correctly ? Screenshots will help.

Hi Vivek,

Yes. I have installed SQL Server 2014 Express edition on local PC.
However when I launch Blueprism post installation, it is by default installing the local DB(refer Install Database BP snap) where am actually facing the error. Attached error screenshot for reference.

I had reinstalled SQL server, Blueprism to see if it resolves the issue but no luck.

Please check and let me know if I am missing something.

Thanks
Ramesh
